Replacing a Chain or Frame constitutes replacing multiple components. If you are changing a single component, see ‘Record a Pre-Inspection Event‘. Before you can replace a Chain or Frame, the replacement must exist in your inventory. For help managing your inventory see ‘Managing Chains and frames inventory‘. If you need to create a new Chain or Frame in the system see ‘Creating Chains and Frames‘
*NOTE* Before entering a Chain or Frame relacement, you will need the date and the equipment SMU when the replacement occured.
Navigate to Record Action:– My Equipment > Record Action
- Select the Equipment on which you wish to replace the Chain or Frame by selecting ‘CUSTOMER’, ‘JOBSITE’, ‘EQUIPMENT’ and ‘SIDE’
- Click ‘CHAIN’ or ‘FRAME’ based on what you are replacing, this will open the component action screen.
*NOTE* The following example uses a Chain, but the process is the same for Frames. - From the ‘ACTION TAKEN’ dropdown box, select ‘Replace From Inventory’
- In the ‘SELECT REPLACEMENT’ dropdown box, all the Chains (or Frames) you have in your inventory and fit this equipment, are displayed. Chose the one you are putting on this equipment.
- Adjust the ‘SMU’ to the figure recorded when the replacement was made.
- Select the date on which the replacement was performed.
- Add comments.
- Click ‘SAVE’ and you will get a save successful msg and be taken back to the ‘Equipment Selection’ screen with the current equipment still selected.
- If you are changing the Chain or Frame on both sides, select the other side and repeat from step 2.
